GASB Reexamines the Financial Reporting Model - Governmental Funds
Speaker: Krisztina Dommer, Manager, Sikich LLP
Description: The current financial reporting model used by state and local governments is contained in GASB Statement No. 34, generally became effective in 2002 for most governments. This model did not substantially change the accounting and financial reporting for governmental funds, most notably the general fund. GASB has now added a project to its agenda to examine reporting for governmental funds and what information should be conveyed in external financial statements. An Invitation to Comment (ITC) was issued by GASB in December 2016 that considers three alternatives to reporting governmental funds.
Learning Objectives - Participants completing this session will be able to:
1. Understand the concepts of the three alternatives contained in the ITC
2. Explore how the alternatives would impact a government’s governmental funds
3. Learn specifically how the alternatives would impact the general fund
